This is a high-contrast italic serif with a pronounced rightward slant and a distinctly calligraphic stroke logic. Thick verticals and hairline connections create a crisp light–dark rhythm, while serifs and terminals taper into sharp, flared endings rather than blunt cuts. Curves are generous and slightly asymmetric, with tight apertures and pointed internal joins that add sparkle at text sizes. The overall color is refined and airy, with lively width modulation across glyphs and smooth, continuous stroke transitions.
Well suited to editorial typography, magazine headlines, and fashion or luxury branding where contrast and italic energy are desirable. It performs best in display and short-form text such as pull quotes, covers, and invitations, where the fine hairlines and sharp terminals can remain clear.
The tone reads sophisticated and literary, with a sense of motion and cultivated elegance. Its sharp hairlines and sweeping italic forms feel fashion-forward and editorial, while the classical serif construction keeps it grounded and formal.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, high-fashion italic with classical serif credibility—prioritizing elegance, motion, and crisp contrast for expressive typography rather than utilitarian neutrality.
Capitals show a stately, slightly narrow posture with crisp entry/exit strokes, while the lowercase carries much of the personality through sweeping bowls and tapered links. Numerals follow the same contrasty, italicized pattern, with graceful curves and thin cross-strokes that emphasize a polished, high-end feel.
